Season 13 ratings
mswood:
Yeah, thinks to no internet yesterday at work I couldn't psot any of the good news.
Based on 30 minute breakdowns of the night (which will still change clightly since the delay wasn't an even 30 minutes and will reflect an influence of Cold Case). So the breakdown of the 8:30 to 9:30 ratings is what I am reporting, today we will have the accurate info.
Viewers from 8:30 to 9:30 11.68 million
Demo for 18-49 from 8:30 to 9:30 3.3
Demo 18-34 from 8:30 to 9:30 2.4
We might see a minor drop in the viewer total (but shouldn't in the demo as AR has consistently beat Cold Case in all three primary Demo groups (teh 25-54 isn't reported in Fast Nationals just Finals).
But it will probably be our most watched episode (and the episode was so worth it, I loved it). And if it stays close to that number in viewers that matches the typical overrun result of last year and is a little better then the overrun results from season 10.
I was very pleased by these results.
mswood:
And DVR results for episode # 5 are out and they showed a bit of an increase from week 3 (and I would assume week 4 that didn't have a large enough increase to make the chart).
Live viewers were 8.558 million
Live Same Day (up to 3am and what are considered final numbers) 9.696 million
Live plus 7 (anyone who watched that week) 10.3 million
a increase of 1.742 million from DVR (VHR's) from its initial broadcast.
A percentage increase of 20.4% (its 2nd best this year).
The only other CBS shows that did better were CSI, NCIS, Survivor, 2 and a half men, The Mentalist.
There was also a report released last week about the first month of this season and how DVR viewership is changing how networks look at shows and which do appeal and what age group uses DVR to watch.
Amazing Race is the 3rd out of all reality shows in DVR usage percentage wise, 2nd in viewers.
The report talks about how its DVR usage and the lower average age of those who DVR helps CBS who's audience is aging and thus gets less dollar per viewer based on that older audience (yeah they hate us).
They also talk about how while its true that DVR results don't truly play a part in revenue thanks to all of us not watching the ads. It does talk about how certain shows can benefit from already existing product placement. For AR tehy talk about how the airline coverage the show provides and the gnome has great means of bringin gin additional revenue from advertisiers (or donating, for our show say airfare, to help lower the cost of shows).
Its a rather positive report for how the future business model for TV wil lhave to take shape, and our show was one that seemed to benefit from it.

60 Minutes, CSI and Sunday Night Football lead weekly top 20 Nielsen TV Ratings
Posted on 11 November 2008 by Robert Seidman
A huge NFL lead in propelled 60 Minutes to the top of the weekly overall broadcast network viewing charts, followed by CSI and Sunday Night Football. Election coverage and the Saturday Night Live Presidential Bash 2008 alsomade the list. On this list CBS was dominant with eleven shows, followed by ABC with five and NBC with four. Fox was completely shut out of this list, though it fared much better in the weekly 18-49 year old top twenty rankings where it at least placed Family Guy and The Simpsons.
CBS isn’t so dominate among 18-49 year olds where it placed seven shows (NBC place six, ABC five and Fox two) but it was still dominant and, it pulled something off I never thought I’d see: two out of three shows from Friday making the top 20 - Numb3rs and a repeat (yes a repeat!) of NCIS. Ghost Whisperer was not far behind at number 23. Just so you know I still have my head screwed on more or less correctly, yes I know it was a strange week with election coverage preempting all of the Tuesday shows. While I don’t personally find this particular list as meaningful as the 18-49 list (and neither, by the way, do the networks) CBS is still cleaning up here and among 18-49 year olds as well. Actually making a night out of Fridays is to be commended in my book.
Still, with almost four million more viewers, Grey’s Anatomy had a million more 18-49 year old viewers than CSI. But there’s no shame in that. The shame for now lies a little at Fox and a LOT at NBC. Without sports, and election coverage NBC would’ve placed no shows on this list (and without Sunday Football that would be the case every week!). Fox at least would’ve place House if not for the election coverage. But the fun doesn’t start for Fox until American Idol comes back, which is going to be a while. Though it will be very interesting to see how the two hour movie, 24: Redemption does in a couple of weeks.
